  @stuartmckenzie You can also use a TS9/SD1/OCD in front of BIAS Rack to color/boost it during solos.

  TRUE! Kemper can do this also. The new Line 6 Spider 240 HC MK II seems to be the cheapest deal! I can not believe that Positive Grid is not able to change this. This issue makes the Bias Head to a bad joke...

  Open the printers’ ‘start’ menu and click on ‘control panel’ and tap on ‘printers and faxes’ icon. This sequence of moves will open up a new window and a list of printers will appear. The list includes all the printers currently setup on the serving computer. Double click on the icon of the printer if the user wants to reconnect online. A pop-up window will then appear, this consist of details of all current print jobs scheduled on the Brother printer Offline.

  I got a completely new unit as an exchange from the service. So obviously it was a technical malfunction.

  @brian-havrilla Hey Brian, you can only control it from the source which is the gear you plug into FX-Loop of BIAS Head.

  @doctor30306 You can actually integrate BIAS Amp2 software with BIAS Head seamlessly and there're a lot more features/sections that can only be adjusted in BIAS Amp2 software. The built-in physical power amp on BIAS Head is also a great hot feature for live gigs.

  Latency between patches when switching with MIDI

  So, with a ton of research and trial and error, what I've found is it is NOT a latency issue from the Bias Rack. When the HX effects I'm using tries to switch presets it loads all of the effect changes prior to sending the MIDI signal, on the preset level. There is a way to get around it by using snapshots within the HX effects and any other Helix type processor. But, that's completely the backwards way of doing it if you're a guitar player. I know this is not a Line 6 forum, but to help out anyone who might be in the same situation for live performance, I would like to share this information. If you would like to have instantaneous switching through BIAS Rack patches and you're using a MIDI controller (like Helix, or HX effect or Firehawk) or an effects board that may have other changes set up within the board this has to be understood. There will be a delay in switching between patches if the fx board you're using doesn't send the MIDI signal first, and loads presets on the board the processor prior to sending the MIDI signal. As with the Line 6 group of processors you have to set up snapshots to get instantaneous switching. It does work seamlessly if you take the time to set up snapshots. And I would suggest setting up a patch for each song you perform and using the snapshots within that preset to control the Bias Amp/Rack. I'd be happy to answer any questions for anyone who is using a similar setup.
